quick question about donor parts

[tomti]

hi chaps, me and a mate are in the process of stripping my e34 535 auto for parts needed for the conversion. Could someone tell whats needed other than engine, loom, ecu, and throttle cable please? Thanks lads

If its non aircon grab the radiator, electric fan (if its got one) get as much of the downpipes as possible and thats about it from the donor car.

What gearbox you using?

[tomti]

it hasn't got aircon mate. I'll buy an e28 rad later. I was going to source an e34 manual box, clutch and i want a lightened flywheel but that will have to come later when funds allow. Just going to get what i need from the donor first so can weigh it in and make some space. Thanks for the reply lee

For the fly wheel, get your self an e28 singel mass and clutch.

[tomti]

would that mate to e34 box or is there no difference? Ive seen a billet m30 flywheel on here before i'd like. If i remember its 230 quid

[leeparkes]

E28 fly & clutch will mate to an E34 box (you can use an M10 box)

You will need some mounts too

[tomti]

ok cool and yea i'll give you a pm when i got the money for the mounts lee. If i remember correctly, i can use my 325 prop with your mounts cant i?

[leeparkes]

With an E34 gearbox, swap the output flange for one off an M20 325i then you can use the 325i prop
